Mariika got hearing aids

September 24, 2024, 22:30 254 Author: Yana Lobanok deti.zp.ua Thank you very much everyone for your help!

Recently, Maria Proskurina received her brand-new hearing aids, and it’s all thanks to your generous support!

Nine-year-old Maria has sensorineural deafness, which means she can't hear certain sound frequencies. After a visit to the hearing center, doctors selected the right devices for her, and together with your help, we were able to purchase them. Now, Maria can hear better, develop her speech, and focus on her learning without the challenges she faced before.

The total cost was 97,000 UAH (about 2390 US dollars) – an overwhelming amount for Maria's mother, who is raising her daughter on her own. But thanks to dozens of kind-hearted people, we were able to collect the full amount in just a month and a half! We bought two hearing aids, batteries, and a charger for Maria.
